She gave up everything for her calling. He waited patiently for her heart. Now purpose - and love - are about to collide. Zaya Louise has always believed in control. As a rising star in Christian ministry, she’s built her life on structure, performance, and keeping her deepest feelings locked away—especially the ones she has for her best friend, Jackson Taylor. But when a scandal forces her to choose between her career and her convictions, Zaya finds herself spiraling—and Jackson is the only one who sees past her facade. What begins as emotional support soon deepens into something more vulnerable… more intimate… and more dangerous than either of them expected. Especially in a faith community that doesn’t know what to do with their kind of love. Torn between obedience to God and the rhythm of her heart, Zaya must confront the truth she’s been avoiding her whole life: that purpose isn’t about performance—it’s about surrender. And Jackson? He’s ready to surrender to her. Completely. Poetic, provocative, and full of spiritual heart, Purposed is a "not so sweet" friends-to-lovers romance about healing, and what it means to be truly loved.
